Hi Guys,

This is my first topic addition.
I'm new to Super 8, but very excited.
I'll be asking lots of dumb questions over the next few months. Be patient!

First Question:

I have just purchased a Bell and Howell 331 Autoload Projector.
It didn't come with any instructions though.
I can't find any info on the web at all.
Can someone shed some light on the projector history and how it works?

Thanks.

Ben

You're right Ben, the only thing I could find was someone on ebay selling belts for it. Can you download a picture of it, maybe someone will have knowledge a similar model. Is it Regular 8mm, Super 8 or a dual gauge projector? Did it come with a working bulb and what bulb does it take? A good picture would help people tell you how to thread it and operate it.
